"Thankful" Lyrics:

(Dean Pitchford, Richard Page, Tom Snow)

Here we are again;
I guess it must be fate
We've tried it on our own
But deep inside we’ve known
We'd be back to set things straight

I still remember when
Your kiss was so brand new
Every memory repeats
Every step I take retreats
Every Christmas always brings me back to you

So for tonight we pray for
What we know can be
And on this day we hope for
What we still can't see
It's up to us, to be the change
And even though we all can still do more
There's so much to be thankful for

When love is truly right
It lives from year to year
It changes as it goes
And on the way it fears
Each of us most find our truth
It's so long overdue

So for tonight we pray for
What we know can be
And everyday, we hope for
What we still can't see
It's up to us, to be the change
And even though we all can still do more
There's so much to be thankful for

Even with our differences
There is a place we're all connected
Each of us can find each other's light

So for tonight, we pray for
What we know can be
And on this day, we hope for
What we still can't see
It's up to us, to be the change
And even though this world needs so much more
There's so much to be thankful for

I found this CD when husband was critically ill with leukemia and this song resonated deeply with me then. The doctors were working day and night to save his life and I “prayed for what we know can be” and “hoped for what we still can’t see.” I’ve always been a fan of Josh and when I get this CD out it touches my heart again. My husband and I will celebrate our 50th anniversary in January 2023.

Every Christmas I would play this cd and my mom would say, "This is my favorite song." -I know, I know I would say. She died last month & now I can barely breathe. All this time I thought I was SO thankful, but I could have been so much more.
Everyone, leave this video and go hug and kiss your mother, husband, children. . . Never EVER take one minute for granted.
Thankful she's with our Lord, but I wish I'd hugged her a little longer, a lot more often.

My dad was atheist until hearing Josh on his Christmas album. Dad cried. Then spoke, "I sure hope your mother can hear this in Heaven." And then...he cried with a smile, lookingup.

This song gives hope to all. Remembering my son, who I lost just after his 22nd birthday in a car accident 😢. Still realize my blessings. I know there is hope. I will see you again Jordan. I go on & give to others in your memory. ❤❤

Josh's voice is a gift from God.  I am thankful that he uses it to sing songs that glorify Him.  Lord, be pleased...thank you for Josh Groban

[ShawnRavenfire]

I know this is off a Christmas album, but it really is a great song to play for Thanksgiving.

[oanastamat]

I can't belive YouTube never recommended your music to me before. Josh, you're amazing!

[halfyear]

I think we're all so thankful for Josh

[samlichtenstein]

You don't have to agree with me, but I believe that this is a great song for Thanksgiving.

[MeredithAnne]

I love this song. It's such a powerful reminder that life is a gift, and an encouragement to be the change we want to see.

LYRICS:
Somedays we forget
To look around us
Somedays we can't see
The joy that surrounds us
So caught up inside ourselves
We take when we should give.

So for tonight we pray for
What we know can be.
And on this day we hope for
What we still can't see.
It's up to us to be the change
And even though we all can still do more
There's so much to be thankful for.

Look beyond ourselves
There's so much sorrow
It's way too late to say
I'll cry tomorrow
Each of us must find our truth
It's so long overdue

So for tonight we pray for
What we know can be
And every day we hope for
What we still can't see
It's up to us to be the change
And even though we all can still do more
There's so much to be thankful for.

Even with our differences
There is a place we're all connected
Each of us can find each other's light

So for tonight we pray for
What we know can be
And on this day we hope for
What we still can't see
It's up to us to be the change
And even though this world needs so much more

There's so much to be thankful for

I dearly love this Josh Groban song ‼️💞💝❤️💕😘 It is important to have an attitude of a gratitude every day of our lives ‼️😊

[jillward]

I love listening to Josh Grobin . David Foster is a genius!! I have never heard any song/arrangement by him that I haven't loved. If only people would listen to music such as this, perhaps the world would be a better place.

[zayasnaturalhairhaven]

Thank you Josh much love and respect for you

My uncle passed away 10/19/2019 and my heart is broken and sad but this song reminds me that in the saddest moment of our life’s there’s so much to be thankful for. The memories I have of him will stay with me and help me through this difficult time. The Lord’s hand is in every fiber of our lives. R.I.P, Uncle Jimmy❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Although my Grandma is and always will be hard core gospel (Mahalia Jackson, Rev. James Cleveland, Shirley Caesar are her faves), I played this song for her while stringing up Christmas Lights two weeks ago and listening to it, she cried and I cried (again) and now this song is a favorite of a 100 year and 50 year old Black women...Thank you Josh..you did the impossible

[molllyiley]

This is one of my favorite songs. I have so much to be thankful for. A family, friends, piano teacher, trainer/workout partner, pets. This song makes me cry!!!

[rexcipriano]
